2000 AD #1178

Prog 1178 of 2000 AD kicks off with a new Judge Dredd thriller — "The Cal Legacy Part 1" — while this striking Duncan Fegredo cover sets the mood with a weathered, wide-brimmed gunslinger on horseback, rifle in hand and a sheriff's star on his chest, riding through a skull-littered wasteland dominated by a crumbling, twisted tower. The cover teases two more thrills inside: an all-new story called Badlands, promising "the land time forgot," and Radlands, with Missionary Man apparently striking a deal with the devil. It's a wonderfully atmospheric prog that showcases the anthology at its most adventurous.
